[It's taken Asterios a few tries to get this thing to work - technology is still beyond him, really. But he's pretty sure he got it working this time, though he gives the screen a few more pokes just in case. Holding it in one hand, he tries to angle it so it only shows his face, and not his giant horns and his scarred body. He figures the less they see the better his odds. Anyway...]

Okay. Thank you.

[Sounds yummy. He's more on the distraction of eating it than making it, thankfully.]

You'll give back to the city in other ways. You're not doing anything wrong, because I don't think you're the type to get greedy about it.

Like fighting? That is all... I'm good for.

[So, sort of agreeing. Just not quite.]

So, what do you actually eat? What do 'they' give you?
no subject
Home? Anything, they give.
